This luxury style of autumn is sort of a heat hug from inside.
Because the climate begins to get cooler in Japan, Starbucks begins to heat up with wealthy and opulent autumnal drinks. This yr, the Chocolate Mousse Latte is returning to sign the change of seasons on the chain, and it’s been given an additional increase of espresso with the addition of Starbucks’ “Espresso Roast” espresso, which has “a caramel-like sweetness and highly effective richness” for much more flavour.
The brand new latte is sort of a hug from inside, with fluffy mousse and a aromatic, nutty sweetness enveloping the deep espresso. The chocolate mousse is the star element, with its fluffy, ethereal texture melting barely with each sip, offering additional depth to the physique of the coffee-rich beverage, which incorporates an almond and hazelnut sauce to really seize the style of autumn.
▼ The latte is out there sizzling or iced.
The chain says the beverage will “take you on an autumn espresso journey”, particularly while you strive the 2 really useful customisations from Nobuki Shimoide, the 18th “Espresso Ambassador” who received prime place out of 60,000 baristas nationwide on the Ambassador Cup 2023, which is the chain’s annual in-house competitors.
Shimoide recommends switching to almond milk for an extra 55 yen (US$0.38) because it serves to boost the nutty flavour of the drink, permitting the aftertaste of nuts and chocolate to linger longer on the palate. Whereas this customisation is extremely really useful for lovers of nut chocolate, lovers of pure chocolate can choose so as to add a free pump of chocolate sauce to the drink, which permits the sweetness, aroma, and depth of chocolate to unfold over the style buds from the very first sip to the final.
Each customisations sound scrumptious, and we will’t wait to strive them when the drink is launched at Starbucks shops nationwide from 30 September-31 October, priced from 589 yen (US$4.06).
